Overall Satisfaction with Skype

Skype is being used as a communication tool within our company as a means to connect us via departments and organizations as a whole. it helps us keep in contact with one another faster than traditional emails and even phone calls. due to the pandemic, we needed to communicate and share our work across great distances and Skype helped us solve this problem.
  • Good call quality
  • Easy connectivity
  • Many functions
  • More friendly communications like gifs
  • Better imaging on video calls
  • Better multiple chats saved conversations
  • Easy to connect
  • Efficiency increase
  • More concise communication
Skype stacks up against them as it is far more user-friendly and it is helpful for smaller companies who need a more affordable system. However, it does lack some functionalities that other tools have which can change this communication tool to a full-fledged like polls and other helpful tools.

Do you think Skype delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Skype's feature set?

Yes

Did Skype live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Skype go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Skype again?

Yes

I would recommend Skype to many companies who are of a smaller size as I believe their platform with benefit more from Skpye than some of the other tools as Skype is generally or in my belief a better use for smaller firms who have a limited number of employees and should mainly be used in a local setting rather than international.
